BFI London Film Festival | 14, 16, 17 October | whatson.bfi.org.uk/lff

Colin Morgan's film Testament of Youth will premiere at the festival, and he is listed as a guest. I don't have any further details, but I assume he would only attend the first of the three screenings. Tickets on sale to BFI Champions on 10 September, Members on 11 September, and the public on 18 September. Will post more details as/when available. (Thanks to Shell for the heads up!)

What would I give to live in London now ;)

The pic of Rupert is so cute and funny. A head taller than everyone else and this 'my hair doesn't know what it wants' hairdo is so sweet. :)

Usually not a fan of facial hair, but yeah, Rupert just needs it :D

Glad to hear that Rupert is doing well and getting work.

Rupert's play is on at 1.30pm UK time on Monday 6th October 2014, according to Twitter on BBC Radio Scotland - available on iplayer elsewhere in the UK - not sure if it can be heard outside the UK, although BBC Radio is not as restricted as TV.

For anyone living north of the Trent, the Leeds film festival opens with Testament of Youth on 5th November (yes, not a good night!) and also has X+Y which starts Asa Butterfield. All good news for fans of the Merlin cast!
